Barbie's Story
Breed: Terrier / Chihuahua mix<br/>Age: 1 yr.<br/>Weight: 7 lbs.<br/>Good with dogs: yes<br/>Good with cats: unsure<br/>Good with kids: no small children <br/>Energy level: unsure<br/>Good with men/strangers: yes<br/>Hypoallergenic: no<br/><br/>Special home requirements or medical: another small playful dog in the home would be best<br/><br/>Additional info:<br/><br/>*PLEASE READ ENTIRE BIO. THIS IS A FERAL DOG*<br/><br/>Barbie is an adorable, smart, playful and healthy terrier mix who loves toys, jumping and climbing (she is still under a year old). However, she had a rough start in life and was rescued from a hoarding situation, so she trusts other dogs and is working on trusting people.<br/><br/>At the hoarder, she was living in filth with about 100 other dogs in a single home. Since being rescued, she has been decompressing in her loving foster home with a female human caretaker and some small doggie foster siblings. She makes a lot of eye contact, responds to verbal correction, and has been good about using puppy pads and going outside in an enclosed yard.<br/><br/>However, Barbie does not yet trust many people — she wants to, but it will take time and patience before she will let you get close. Her amazing foster has been working magic with her (really just patience, a quiet and calm environment, and small dog friends:) and she is now sleeping on the bed (sometimes under the covers right on top of her feet!), playing under the covers, and accepting gentle pets. She sleeps quietly through the night in her crate or pen and loves food, but she needs a human with experience with dogs, no small children, another small dog in the home, and someone - just one person - to be her hero and guide her to a lifetime of love. Every dog deserves a chance. Please show Barbie some love for being so brave and letting down her walls ... brick by brick, day by day. Apply to adopt this girl today and guide her journey to forever love.<br/><br/><br/>If you are not ready to adopt just yet and would like to help in other ways, please consider clicking on the green “Sponsor Me” button above to help this dog receive the best care we can give.
